Zeta International Milan Guide: S. MARIA DELLE GRAZIE | |
---|---|
![]() | Originally constructed in austere Gothic style in 1490, the church and its adjoining convent are now a symbol of the glory of Renaissance Milan. Ludovico il Moro, in his quest to turn Milan into a beautiful rival of Florence, directed the architect Bramante (Donato di Pascuccio) to reconstruct the apse and lantern of his favourite church, St. Mary of Grace. Leonardo da Vinci was commissioned to paint the frescos - the most famous being the Cenacolo or Last Supper, which graces the far wall of the adjacent Dominican dining hall. |
